We continue to review the Animal Ordinance this month. The Animal Ordinance covers issues like TAG FEES and the definition of "Companion". We encourage you to read over this document because, as citizens of Hillsborough County and as veterinarians, you are directly affected by these laws. You can review the ordinance at WWW.HillsboroughCounty.org/animsvcs/ordinance/home.html.

The Hillsborough County Spay and Neuter Voucher Program is helping us sterilize more pets in our county. I encourage everyone to call Andy at Animal Services (813) 744-5811, to sign-up your clinic for this program. If you have any particular concerns or questions, please contact Melissa Webster at melweb7@msn.com.
